Hello, my fellow forum members! I'm Malgrun, or really, just call me Angul or Angelica, I have no idea what a Malgrun would be anyway. But what I do know is that I come in peace. I'm 17 (going on 18 in less than a month, January 10th.) and Swedish, so if my grammar or spelling seems to be a little funky sometimes, I'll just blame it on that.
I'm currently a student, in a programme with focus on art. It's not an art school or anything, but we've got art for 8 hours a week, and the purpose is to try seriously EVERYTHING and learn the basics. I don't know what I'm going to do after my last year (which would be the next) but I'm still aiming for art. I've always been drawing, and I can't see anything else I feel I'd like to do with my life.
Fiction. I love fiction, in all it's forms. Be it books, movies, music, games. I feed on inspiring stories, and I guess that's why I've been enjoying FF so much.
For books, I'm of course a Tolkien fan, no denying that. But I'd say my favourite authors are Holly Black, Douglas Adams and for the moment I've been ploughing through Mortal Engines and it's three follow ups by Philip Reeve. Movie nerd, always been one. As a kid I liked everything by Tim Burton, without at the time knowing the movies were by the same director. Other favourites would be Star Wars (I have however, not watched the newer movies yet...), Indiana Jones, Zoolander, Alien, Fight Club, Kill Bill, Shaun of The Dead, Död Snö, Forrest Gump and Miyazaki's works yadayada..
When it comes to music I'm a huge Kent (Swedish band) and Tori Amos fan, but mainly my little music machine is stuffed with instrumental music, be it the classics or soundtracks from movies.
The whole anime and manga phase is pretty much over for me, but I have my history with it, but I still got some of my undying favourite stories out of it, such as Dorohedoro (!!) Neon Genesis Evangelion and Gurren Lagann. I still read One Piece. When someone is creating something, having honest fun, you notice it, and that is One Piece.
Games? Hm. I don't consider myself a gamer at all. For the moment I'm playing through Shadow of The Colossus, and it's just stunning. As for Final Fantasy, I was introduced to it pretty late, FFX being my first game. And what a game! I think I was 14 at the time, and since then I've been trying to catch up with previous titles. FFVI would be my favourite, but X will always be precious. I'm also playing through IV and V whenever I've got time on my sleeve, and I've finished VII, VIII and XII as well. I think I've wasted my life on XII, but I regret nothing! Loving that beautiful game and that fine arcadian gentleman of a sky pirate. What I missed were more character interaction, but I guess I'm spoiled after the numerous cutscenes of FFX. I signed up here on the FF forums because I need to outlive my little FF obsession somewhere, since I don't have any local FF nerds, haha.
My other puny little interests are people, culture, history, mythology, owls, sea creatures, hands, noses, the world in general and SHOPPING FOR CLOTHES!
And with that last unintelligent little outburst I end my wall of text.
